Itinerary
We will start our pick up in Puerto Varas around 08.30 am. to continue later towards Lake Llanquihue, the second largest lake in the country.
We will begin our excursion, visiting the city of Llanquihue, famous for its cured meats and the place of origin of the Maullín River, it is part of the old Route of the Colonists. In the city we will visit Los Cisnes Beach and the Pier that has a beautiful view of the Lake and the Volcanoes. Then we will skirt Llanquihue Lake to head towards Frutillar.
Here we can enjoy southern traditions, since Frutillar perfectly reflects the history of German settlers throughout the region. We can see it in its architecture, in the roses introduced in the gardens and typical gastronomies.
Optionally, passengers can access the German Colonial Museum that shows the life of the colonists or enjoy a coffee with a typical German pastry from this area. On its waterfront we will observe the Teatro del Lago where the famous "Musical Weeks of Frutillar" are held annually with worldwide attendance.
Also Optionally, We can visit the Lake Theater, one of the largest and most modern in South America, and the German Colonial Museum, to understand more about the history in the area (tickets not included).
After the visit, we will be returning to our selected hotels in Puerto Varas or Puerto Montt.

Reviews
Puerto Varas is a very welcoming city. I suggest visiting the museum Pablo Fierro, a great artist who welcomes him and presents his museum with great affection. It is worth a visit to Frutillar with views of 3 volcanoes, including the Osorno. It is worth climbing up to the Osorno base and leaving a day to go back to the lake by stopping in different cities. Super recommend the tour to Saltos de Petrohué.
Frutillar is nice, it's overrated how I walk. There is no cost-benefit ratio. You can go by bus and ride the same thing.
Beautiful city, well maintained and full of history. Fantastic view of the lake. Really a place to visit and have a hot chocolate if the weather is cool.
